It seems it's called The Euroscope π©Ά
I thought of you when I landed in Lowestoft, Suffolk. When I twitched Purple Sandpipers, this was nearby. The most easterly point in England, it seems π
I'm just coming to the end of a week off. I've had a nap almost every day π΄π
Love the LTT pics
Very true π I do have a good zoom on my camera, I hasten to add π
*Razorbills
The colour of the inside of their mouth always surprises me π
Their 'voice' is wonderful, isn't it? Whichever call or song. I heard a few in Suffolk.
I tried to record the sounds of a House Sparrow colony. Some experiences just can not be captured, hey?
How's this for a perfectly bad snap of a Wilson's?
Welcome back 251J π€
Long walks on shingle are tough going. Amazing stuff with the Zitters. I scoped it out but the fog never lifted whilst I was there. I will have another bash if they start their song/flight displays π
Cracking full days birding along the Suffolk coast. Lots of good birds seen today include the Zitting Cisticola, 4 shorelarks, woodlarks, dartford warblers, spotted redshank, bittern, bearded tits etc. also my first adder and butterfly of the year. Walked miles mostly on shingle beaches

@lepa23.bsky.social thank you for suggesting footpathmap.co.uk It's been really helpful in deepest Suffolk π
I thought of you @clarkwgriswold3.bsky.social I ventured out to see if the fog was lifting yesterday (it wasn't) and heard a really close sounding Tawny. Followed by a chorus of squawking Jays π
The fog in Suffolk finally lifted today. Nice to see what was near my digs, incl LTT flitting about after insects.
A couple of class year ticks: my third Humes Warbler, 5 Shorelarks & single Snow Bunting.
Ended on 85 species with a beaut of a Barn Owl at Carlton Marshes just now

You're welcome. I hope to get to see the film one day π

Thank you π€π
I spotted a Weller in the pub this evening π
Also listened to Guns Don't Kill People after watching this
This rubbish was at my digs. Not sure whether to recycle it or burn it π€ I didn't notice the ladybird π
No Barn Owl, but a Tawny was nice
Day one of my jollies in Suffolk. Year ticks of Purple Sandpiper & Kittiwake. Yet another Shore Lark dip π
51 species so far. Barn Owl would be very welcome on the one hour walk to find my digs. Wish me luck π

That is good. However it happened.
Enjoy your day Colette. I'm off on a purple sandpiper hunt π
Not sad, and I'm glad you posted it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known.
There's all kinds of moral questions, I guess, but the best would be that we stop creating these monstrous 'humans' in our societies
In my defense, I had just read about him telling a reporter how he thought the 2 girls would respond to being kidnapped. Clearly recounting how they had responded. *Welling up*
Should I say that last bit out loud?
Wow !! Amazing stuff ππ€©
I passed by Soham earlier in my train journey.
That is good news re Huntley
